MEXICAN-STYLE CORN WITH PEPPERS

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a skillet or saute pan over medium-low heat, melt butter.

• Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes.
• Add chopped pimiento and heat through.
• Garnish corn with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.

SEARED SCALLOPS WITH A CORN, BACON AND AVOCADO RELISH

Steps:

• Take a small bowl and place it upside-down inside a large bowl. (This will provide a small stand for your corn, making it easier to remove the kernels, and the large bowl will catch them as the fall, avoiding a mess.) Using a knife, remove the kernels from the corn, letting them fall into the bowl.
• Dice the onion and red bell pepper and add them to the bowl with the corn. Add 1 tablespoon of the chopped parsley and season with salt and pepper. Mix to evenly distribute the ingredients.
• Set a pan over medium heat and add some oil. Add the corn mixture to the pan and cook until the onions begin to soften, tossing occasionally, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Sprinkle the sea scallops with salt and pepper. Set a pan over medium-high heat and add some oil. Add the scallops and sear until golden in color, about 1 minute on each side. Remove from the heat and let rest.
• Dice the avocados and add them to the corn relish along with the chopped bacon. Season with salt and pepper and mix together.
• Evenly distribute the relish among 4 plates and top each with 4 scallops. Garnish with the remaining 1 tablespoon parsley and a squeeze of lemon.

MEXICAN SCALLOPED CORN

Steps:

• Mix all of the ingredients together except for the margarine. Place in small casserole; dot with margarine and bake at 375 degrees for about 30-40 minutes until bubbly around the edges and no longer wiggles in the middle!
• P.S. I initially substituted the sour cream with 2 of those "topping" packets you get with Hamburger Helper Enchilada dinners (which is part of our snack night served with tortilla chips and Mex. condiments. (We don't like it as a topping), but it worked fine in this recipe.
